I'm down 102 lbs in less than 7 months from a keto/intermittent fasting combination. My inflammation is down and I feel fantastic. Still have 58 lbs to go! Great advice here and following you now!
Just out of curiosity how is it going now? I see these comments often and some people keep most of it off, others fall off and regain the wait. Most diets aren't sustainable for most people long term. Too much convenient highly palatable foods exist and avoiding them or limiting them is difficult for the type of ppl to gain the wait in the first place. It's why we gain it. Many people are successful long term, but most of them change in more than just eating habits. They become more active and outdoorsy, those seem to keep it off the best.

I love your videos. I went through premature menopause at 26. It was devastating. Struggled with my weight for over 10 years. Perfect timing as I was just about to try and find some food. Thank you. It's mental discipline too 🙏
Dr Becky from South Africa you have inspired and helped me countless times with your videos! I love fasting, it’s so part of my life! Thank you and blessings to you and Dr Keith!
Thank You for these Tips and Tricks. I have been keto with intermittent fasting for a long time. I do not notice much real hunger any more, but I still have days when what I call "mouth hunger" works on me. On these day, my belly is not hungry, but my mouth wants something to eat! Stress adds to this type of hunger. I have found the 10-minute rule often helps. Again, Thank You.
I've been doing intermittent fasting for about three years and did a 42-hour fast last weekend. My intention/motivation for fasting was never weight loss (although it has been very rewarding), it was to improve my health (I was borderline obese). As a result, because I made true changes to my diet and eating habits, I have lost 45 pounds very slowly over that time period, about 1-1.5 pounds per month,. It has been an amazing journey and my BMI is in the healthy range. I feel so much more alive. Weight loss has been a release of a physical burden that I carried around and now I feel light and bouncy. It's a wonderful feeling to hop out of bed, rather than roll, or to pop up from a squatted position, rather than to brace myself with a table or chair to lift myself. We are magnificent machines. Thank you for creating videos for us.
Thank you very much Dr Becky. I love ALL these tips & I really like tip number #5. 😀 Prayers and well wishes for you, Dr Keith & your family from Canada.
The liquids that I use during my daily fasting period are: black coffee, carbonated water, and root ginger water. The magical liquid there is the carbonated water, *I seriously swear by it* it's extremely satiating giving a feeling of fullness in the stomach. If you've never tried it I urge you to start using it DAILY! I also undertake 3 or 4 multi-day fasts a year also, and carbonated water is my primary weapon. See my daily routines. Good luck
@@mariaquiles9700 Did you actually want me to give you a personal account of my day-to-day as opposed to you heading over and seeing exactly what I do? If you wanted me to spell it out for you in a message, then no way are you serious about changing your life!
Thanks for the tips, my daughter started with some low sugar carbonated water. It helped her get off soda. I find most days hunger is abated, but some days my stomach just growls and I wonder if it was a few more carbs I had day before or just because someone brought brownies in and I'm conditioned to want them. Every day is a learning process. I bought Endure by your suggestion to help with cramps and it worked at night.
Thank you for the information. I do 18 hour fast 3 times a week. Dinner before 6:00 fast until noon the next day. Not easy but drinking carbonated waters and getting out of the temptations in the house by walking my dog and playing disc golf helps a lot. Is a table spoon of heavy cream okay to put in my morning coffee?
I'm fasting every day from 2pm to 8am next day. It's very hard to not eat anything after 2pm, sometimes, especially because I'm working every afternoon, but I used to it. I'm drinking bulletproof coffee if I'm hungry during my fast period.
Hello Maja, it sounds to me like you're making it more difficult than it should be. This is my daily routine 365 days a year. I also mix in several multi-day fasts a year also. SOOOOOOOOOOOO: *Low-Carb, high animal protein, medium saturated fats OMAD eating window 6pm to 8pm* The point is when you stop eating at 2pm you have many hours left in the day to think about eating! I finish eating at 8pm and quite honestly when I wake in the morning my black coffee, carbonated water, and root ginger water quenches any appetite for food. Head over and see my day-to-day in action. *Warning:* I'm blunt, direct, and to the point. I don't do excuses! Good luck - Leo Low-Carb Lion
@@KatieZeldin about 6 months. Before this I was fasting 12-14 hours. Now I'm fasting 18-19 hours every day, I have got two meals in my eating window (first meal at 8am or 9am and second/last meal at 1.30pm or 2 pm) and I'm on keto. Yes, it becomes easier with time... But I must eat in morning at 8 because I weak up between 5 and 6am and I'm doing my workouts at 10am, so I couldn't be without any food in morning. So this eating/fasting patern suits me best. 😊
@@LowCarbMeatMan I'm not making it more difficult at all. My goal isn't weight loss, I'm very thin, but I'm 51 years old woman and I don't want to torture myself with just one meal per day. So I'm eating two meals in day, my last meal is at 2pm (because it suits me best on that way) and I'm on keto almost three years already.
Thank you for your videos and abundance of information on your website. Handy having a convienient go to resource to reinforce why doing 'x' is beneficial. I make sure to wait after each meal and visual the food filtering down oesophagus into the stomach. If I do feel hungry I ensure to not grab anything ready to eat from the fridge but middle ground of prepping something quit to cook like mushrooms, so by the time they are ready my hunger may have subsided and I have tactfully avoided regret of eating something to feel full. Another tip is to leave out containers, wrappers of everything consumed to serve as a visual aid. Anywaau I've so many helpers but I digress.. Another none egg breakfast I like is a blended drink made of coconut milk, granulated/powder coffee, half refrigerated banana. Almond milk jelly with cinomemen honey and ginger. Overnight oats submerged in almomd milk with either blueberries or cacao powder and banana or peanut butter for a decadent creamy breakfast pot.
Hi Swamper60, thanks for the heads up. The channel wasn't hacked, but someone posted a number of nonsensical comments, likely using a robot. We reported it to TH-cam. I appreciate your comment!
Fasting with water and coffee only causes GERD problems for me. Just a teaspoon of heavy ceeam in my coffee stops that problem. Am I ruining my fasting? Thank you 🥰
Recently I started drinking Matcha tea during my fasting period. I noticed on the nutrition label that it has 1 carb. Would you elaborate on this please. I been doing IF for more than two years and don’t have hunger I do 16/8 and can go longer without any problem. Thank you Doctor.
Do you ever experience headaches during the fasting period? I desperately want to be able to fast for 16 hours or longer as well, but sometimes I get a nasty headache. Not always. But I would like freedom from sugar addiction.
I was doubting you and i remembered i had an electrolyte and i poured in my water and it was disgusting (to me) but all of a sudden the pain went away.
Can you discuss how to get through the food cravings (beginning stages) until you are no longer cravings food ie low carb or keto. I'm currently craving to much too fast how to move towards it.
I'm not technically fasting but I'm only eating a light breakfast and waiting til dinner to eat (between 5-7pm) am I losing weight bc of fasting? Would it even be considered that? Or simply because I cut off my lunch meal? Slightly confused here.
I’d like you I found you today and I am restarting my fasting after about six weeks off I found Dr. Fung and Dr. Berg and they really help me a lot so now I found you and I like how you calmly talk and present these ideas so much appreciate it. I am subscribing.
I since i am a breakfast eater and get up early, I stop eating with my dinner around 5. But find the days I do the 12 hour fast, which does work for me to loose wieght, I have trouble sleeping those nights. I'm not nessesarly hungry, but sleep seems stressed. Any suggestions? I am 60.
I quite regularly skip the intermittent fasting once a week. I wake up starving. I allow myself to give in those days. Dont know if that's ok or not or undoes more than I think.
I love the content of your channel. Thank you for the work you put into it. I was wondering if fasting lowers the metabolism. I’m 68 and I do not want to lower it further. I have a history of trying many diets.
I get headaches when I'm hungry. Is this due to sugar withdrawal? Will i experience headaches every time when I'm fasting and feel hungry? I work 5 days a week and need lots of energy at my job. Having a headache at work due to fasting will really affect my productivity.
Your tips have sure helped me! Also one of my meals is a great salad. I've said it before that just listening to you makes me want to only eat the way you teach us!!👍
Some vitamins are fat soluble and require that you eat something with fat in them in order for them to be properly digested. So what I do is have a few nuts with my vitamins. That will break my fast but isn't so bad....in my mind anyhow.
How long can one safely engage in intermittent fasting? Indefinitely, or only for a few months? And thank you for your videos. I've lost weight for the first time after trying so many other interventions. I feel so much better!
I'm having a really hard time with cramping. I drink water, I use electrolyte drops in it, but I cramp every night multiple times. What am I doing wrong? It was only a mild problem before but since I've gone low carb, it's ALL the time please help, am I dehydrating because of low carb?
Take (Minimally) 1 teaspoon of Himalayan pink salt daily in carbonated water preferably, guaranteed no more cramping. Head over and see my daily routines in full. Leo Low-Carb Lion
What helps me to avoid eating if I get the urge is my partner and I engage in extra curricular activities.😉 Seriously though I chew sugarless gum. Thanks Dr.Becky 🫂 🇨🇦
I am just coming to the end of a 48 hour fast, only had water and a few cups of tea here and there. I only found the first 12 hours difficult to control hunger. But i planned ahead by having no food in house, avoiding food at work and keeping active. I feel pretty good and hope it has done my body some good. I could easily go on longer but i need to work out and need the fuel i guess.

Hunger is like my inner child ,I keep telling myself Im an adult and its my choice when to eat!
Lol that's a great discription!
can I drink tea? without sugar or cream? during the day?
i drink black coffee and tea.. a warm drink is soothing
Hi Laura, you can drink black coffee or tea during the day.
It's an acquired taste, but If I eat a slice of lemon, it kills any craving.
